o ooh, I’ll look into the Prid immediately. I haven’t gotten the scab off completely yet, I tried soaking it for 20 mins, but it was still kind of hard so i just rubbed the ointment on for now, then gauzed and wrapped it, hoping it would soften up more over the day. It would be awesome if I...

I got her wrapped up, thanks! Ended up getting got knock off horsewrap from walmart. She was also super cooperative, I love this old girl 💛

I noticed my oldest hen was not as mobile and stood more on one feet. Since it’s in the 10-20s I thought she was just cold, but decided to check her feet just in case. It looks like she has bumblefoot. There seems to be a giant kernel but very little swelling. it is obviously causing her...

Middle of November, poor 9 month old girl. Im giving her access to the cat food for some extra protein 😭 I noticed her looking a little frazzled and extra jumpy last week and thought the other girls must have been picking on her, odd because she should be in the top half of the pecking order...

at that age and temp, I would place them outside only if it’s sunny, and only in a sunny location. They will warm up in the sun as needed or seek the cool shade if they get too warm. I’ve also done this with younger chicks, never had an issue

I see, i havent had any of my birds get dramatically larger combs at lay, but maybe oegbs are different 😅 First time owning them and they are quite lovely

do they continue to grow comb? Photo was taken at 15 weeks which makes them about a month younger than Kimi’s. I’m leaning more towards Kimi’s theory that theirs is a roo.

hehe, thank you on her behalf!

And she lays a slate green egg!

looks like my oegbs, i have a barred and a creole. Though yours seem to have bigger combs

My lawn isn’t all one type of grass, I’m worried they may ingest something toxic like persicaria once the blade mulches it all up. From what I've read, they’re pretty good at knowing what they can and cannot eat when the grass is fresh and whole, but not as discerning once it’s all cut and...

I’ve been feeding my chickens grass. Not the stuff from my lawn mower, I pick out the variety that I know they love to eat ( I believe it’s perennial rye) and chop it up to short little bits with scissors and supplementing their diet. Been getting some really nice tasty yolks!

Thanks! They are so cute they can get away with murder, lol. really friendly too, which I wasn’t expecting from Anconas. Eitherway, I’m hoping to get them out of the house by 5 weeks.:th

and it’s in the 40s and they’re screaming cold and they refuse to move under the heating mat…. then you just have to move the heating mat to their roost… :confused: I miss summer

This freeloader squatted today!

Mailing list promoted this article today, so I just wanted to drop by and say that this method is tried and true!

there’s a lady down in west nyak that sometimes has some. If you have facebook, dm me and I can send you her info.

mine’s been free ranging since week 2 😆 only one hour a day when I’m watching them though.

Awwww they be twinning!

for what it’s worth, my week olds are practically off heat. They’re inside at night and its in the high 60s indoors. Ive had them outside during the day since day 4 I think. it hasn't been that hot outside either, and they haven't scream cold at me yet XD
